Hi,I am looking for some information about this deep diver gyromatic watch I got it today in mail and now I am considering the plan of restoring - bezel will need it, crystal and dial are nice as well the hands As far as I am informed its early 60's watch...  

It seams that the watch is in original shape, the bezel is steel as well - its some rust for the storage that gave chrome corrosion impression, Now it will go for a good movement cleaning it got case cleaning, hands filling with original tritium paste ref...  

But I love it! Damn, my wish list is getting bigger and bigger. Best, Nicolas

I didn't know it either in this version - thats why I was asking after I got it - It steel need some work - bezel pin needs to be replaced - so it can click again, as well the case needs some touch, dial is 90% - some small imperfections but considering a...  

Very cool find, my friend. Can't wait to see the improvements, but be careful, I wouldn't touch the case too much. It looks very acceptable, to me. Best, Nicolas

interessante pezzo. l'avevo visto in asta e credo di aver fatto anche una micro offerta ma pensavo che non fosse possibile restaurare la ghiera. Pensavo che i denti laterali fossero molto rovinati e che fare una nuova cromatura nuova creasse troppo contra...  

Giuseppe - You have beautiful white dial one, as for the bezel I think I ll have my restored next month in Eu - I am already making arrangements so we going to see how this will turn around thank you for the information about the crown - by any chance you... 

Il diametro della corona è di 5, 5 mm, l'altezza è circa 2,3 mm ( misura approssimativa ). La mia impressione è che la corona, originale secondo me, sia grande per il tipo di orologio e per la sua epoca. Ma direi che ci sono anche altre caratteristiche ab... 

I totally agree that this is very good idea to combine the information about this watches in one place - I have seen one starting here at this forum - but many of the GP watches were missing I have seen kind of similar one to the one we have just with dif...

I actually recently found the same watch when cleaning out my fathers house after he passed away. Would you mind tell me what you paid for your's I am trying to put a ballpark value on the watch.

i like the way you have sympathetically improved it. i wont say restore as you havent done enough for that, but it looks just perfect the way it is. for collectors of dive watches this could be a long hard search dont you think Nico enjoy Graham
